log. P = - 52-15225289 + 3-868282 



= 47713029 



Thus P-S'iy x 10 ~ i7 , or the chances are 2 x 10 46 to 1 against 

 there being no bias. 



In the case of Stature the unit of grouping is greater than 

 10 mm. and hence this preponderance of even values of millimetres 

 is not a matter of great consequence.
